I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were quiet with effective double glazing, though small but adequate for a couple of nights. However, being next to the lift made it constantly noisy. There was also some damp on the wall by the window which we did report.

Service

The service was a bit of a mixed bag. Some staff members were unpleasant and unhelpful, especially at breakfast and the bar. However, others were very friendly and went out of their way to make our stay the best they could under the present circumstances.

Location

8.0

The location was ideal for our 2-day stay, pleasantly surprising us with all aspects considering the price. It was good, within easy reach of town, right over the road from the seafront.

Dining

5.0

The dining experience was rather disappointing and didn't really set me up for the day. Also, it wasn't included in the room price, and paying extra for breakfast on top of the room rate felt a bit much.

Facilities

The hotel had decent facilities, but nothing out of the ordinary.

I had a great time at the hotel; the rooms were large and comfortable with modern en-suite facilities. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, making my stay even more enjoyable. The location was perfect, just a minute's walk to the beach, and the free onsite parking was very convenient. However, I was a bit let down by the dining experience due to limited breakfast options, although the price was reasonable.

My stay at the hotel was fine. The room was nice and clean, and the staff was friendly. I will definitely consider staying again. However, the room was a bit dated, and the thin walls made it hard to sleep due to noise from the neighboring room. I was also disappointed that breakfast wasn't included in the price and would have been an additional £10 per person, which was not initially clear during booking.
